On certain trailers, the torsion axles may have been improperly welded by the axle manufacturer during the manufacturing process. As a result, the welds could break and allow the torsion arm to separate from the torsion bar/beam. A separated torsion arm could cause a wheel to separate from the trailer and to strike a vehicle, a stationary object or a bystander, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect welds and, if necessary, replace one or both of the axles.
